If you are a member of the SEC, then you have enough money to grow and maintain decent field turf
Field turf is artificial and that is what they have. How can you grow an artificial surface?

First it was Kenyan Drake, then this past Saturday it was one of Ole Miss' own players L. Treadwell and the only reason they both were severely injured in my opinion was that stupid rug turf they have over there.
Neither one of those injuries occured becuse of the turf. The other factors would have caused both of those injuries as well. Yes, older styles of turf cause more injuries (the newer ones are almost on par with grass) that is not the style on injuries that are caused by turf.

I think the SEC needs to DEMAND they go to natural turf over there or get fined until they comply
What about Mizzou, Vandy and UK (aren't yall switching next year)? How about every SEC program including Bama having turf practice fields?

It seems to me they need to study this stuff before anyone else gets hurt on it. I am not a fan of it at all. I think natural grass is the only thing players need to play on, except in a domed stadium. I don't know what exactly they use in domed stadiums, but it ain't that crap.

ArKansas has turf, too; both in Little Rock & Fayetteville.
